VMware vSAN Specialist v2 (5V0-22.23)Preview

A host in the cluster experiences a permanent NIC failure, and the replacement part will not arrive until the next morning. The administrator needs to ensure the availability of the production workload at all times.

Which step should be taken by the administrator to meet this goal?

A vSAN administrator wishes to implement HCI mesh between two clusters that are located in geographically separate data centers.

Which two possible options must the vSAN administrator choose to achieve this configuration? (Choose two.)

A vSAN administrator has recently upgraded to vSAN. The vSAN administrator wants to control the amount of Capacity Reserve to use the underutilized capacity of ~140TB in the cluster of 12 vSAN ReadyNodes and 400TB storage for vSAN internal operations.

Which two options should be used to accomplish this goal? (Choose two.)

The objects on a four-node vSAN cluster are assigned a RAID-5 policy. A network outage occurs, causing host one to lose connectivity with the rest of the cluster. Seventy-five minutes have elapsed.

What is the health state of the objects?

Which two vSAN health finding categories are part of Skyline Health? (Choose two.)

An administrator will be performing a rolling upgrade of a vSAN cluster over the weekend. In preparation, the administrator runs the Data Migration Pre-Check.

Which two items are being checked? (Choose two.)

A vSAN administrator has deployed a new All-Flash vSAN cluster and would like to perform a health test on it to verify that the network performance is meeting the network throughput requirements.

Which tool should be used for this purpose?

A vSAN administrator has reported a security vulnerability to the security officer of the organization. Currently, the vSAN cluster runs on the latest version of vSAN. The administrator suggests patching the vSAN cluster and gets approval from the security officer to apply the latest patch for vSAN.

The administrator uses vSphere Lifecycle Manager to apply the patch to the current image. The organization requirements state that patches should be installed as fast as possible on the hosts.

Which configuration should the administrator apply to complete this installation?

Which two conditions should be verified before removing an ESXi host from a vSAN cluster? (Choose two.)

An administrator wants to check the vSAN cluster health during the maintenance window while vCenter Server is offline.

What are two ways to complete this task? (Choose two.)

A vSAN Administrator has a cluster of six vSAN nodes. The vSAN datastore was 55% utilized, and due to a power outage, one node was lost. The vSAN administrator needs to resolve the storage policy compliance for the virtual machines on RAID-5.

Which action, if any, needs to be taken to meet this goal?

A single disk in a vSAN OSA disk group suffers from an unrecoverable hardware failure. This causes vSAN to set the health status for all disks in the group to Permanent disk loss, indicating disk failure. All other disks, however, have not suffered from a hardware failure.

Why would vSAN mark all disks in this manner?

An organization is facing vSAN storage capacity challenges on one of their vSAN enabled clusters, while other vSAN enabled clusters are underutilized.

Which vSAN feature should be used to resolve this challenge in the quickest way?

A vSAN administrator has been asked to encrypt all traffic for data and metadata across all hosts in a vSAN cluster.

Which action is necessary to achieve this level of encryption?

An administrator needs an esxcli system command that will place a vSAN host into maintenance mode using the "Ensure Accessibility" option.

Which esxcli system command will work?

When viewing the VMware Skyline Health: vSAN Object Health report, the vSAN administrator observes that the link "Repair Objects Immediately" is enabled.

What is the meaning of this message?

A vSAN administrator puts a vSAN host into maintenance mode with the option "Ensure Accessibility". Currently the vSAN cluster contains four hosts. In the meantime, another host failure occurs.

What happens to the vSAN cluster when the host exits maintenance mode?

A group of virtual machines on a five-node vSAN OSA cluster have the vSAN Default Storage Policy assigned to them. This policy has not been modified from its default settings to date. The vSAN administrator would like to reduce the amount of storage capacity consumed by these virtual machines.

Which action will produce this result?

A host in a vSAN OSA cluster has the following VMware Compatibility Guide approved disks:
• 3 Solid State Drive (SSD) used for cache
• 12 magnetic Hard Disk Drives (HDD) used for capacity

Which two options are valid disk group configurations? (Choose two.)

A vSAN administrator notices the VMware Skyline Health: Network Latency Check reports indicate three hosts are non-compliant.

Which action should the vSAN administrator take?

A vSAN administrator has received a provisioning request, which will require increasing the vSAN cluster capacity by 25%.

Knowing Storage Pools is being used, with 7 devices per ESXi host.

What must the vSAN administrator do once the additional devices are received?

An administrator was asked to enable deduplication and compression in the existing vSAN cluster.

Which action must be taken prior to that action?

An administrator has discovered that space utilized by VMs does not decrease after deleting files and folders within the VMs. The administrator needs to be able to reclaim this space.

Which action could the administrator take to accomplish this task?

A new vSAN ESA cluster with four hosts has to be designed for a single site architecture.

Which design decision is correct?
